Is the screen actually upside-down like that?

First of all, try to install binary release - you may have built from sources during my active development (sometimes it's buggy and it's normal).

If you have enough Linux skills you may try: load into single user mode, connect to this OS with SSH and inspect contents of /tmp/GNUstep/console.log and send its contents here.

Some psossible reasons of failing start of Workspace are:

Anyway, I think I have to add console.log inspection right into panel from your screenshot.

BTW, may issue #437 be closed?

The following has worked for me to run a NEXTSpace session from an ordinary display manager like gdm: /usr/share/xsessions/NEXTSpace.desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=NEXTSpace
Comment=Run a NEXTSpace Session
Exec=/usr/local/bin/NEXTSpace.sh
TryExec=/usr/local/bin/NEXTSpace.sh
DesktopNames=NEXTSpace
X-GDM-SessionRegisters=true

/usr/local/bin/NEXTSpace.sh:

#!/bin/sh

gnustep-services start
exec /usr/NextSpace/Apps/Workspace.app/Workspace "$@"
